President Wilson I am sure was another, though I know him only through you and Colonel House and his own public utterances.

Even so your influence must have counted in his action, by your friendship with him as well as by the fact of your being the channel through which communications passed between him and us.
I cannot adequately express what it was to me personally in the dark days of 1914, 1915, and 1916 to know how you felt about the great issues involved in the war.
I go to Fallodon at the end of this week and come to London the first week of September--if you and Mrs.Page have not left by then I hope I may see you.

I long to do so before you go.

I wish you may recover perfect health.

My eyesight continues to fail and I shall soon be absolutely dependent upon other eyes for reading print.
Otherwise I feel as well as a schoolboy, but it is depressing to be so well and yet so crippled in sight.
Please do not trouble to answer this letter--you must have too many letters of the kind to be able to reply to them separately--but if there is a chance of my seeing you before you go please let me have a message to say when and where.
Yours sincerely, GREY OF F.
A few months before his resignation Page had received a letter from Theodore Roosevelt, who was more familiar than most Americans with Page's work in London.
